So, my break point 'in_array( 'root', $_SERVER ) ? exit(1)..' works. To be save not running scripts under root, but: I miss a documentation/suggestion or is this a bug? Test script: --------------- # Running as 'root' | 'user' var_dump( in_array( 'root', $_SERVER ) ); // true | false var_dump( isset( $_SERVER['root'] ) ); // false | false var_dump( array_key_exists( 'root', $_SERVER ) ); // false | false Expected result: ---------------- depends on implementation/ documentation. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=78663&edit=1
